Bow Tutorial
tutorial1
1. Pick out your ribbon, any size, any width.
You will want at least 2 yards.

tutorial3
2. Loop your ribbon back and forth 4 times, pinching in the middle.

tutorial2
3. Turn your ribbon, cut a smaller piece to tie in the middle.

tutorial4
4. Tie off your bow tightly with your smaller piece of ribbon.


We are gaga over bows at g.c.d. facebook! I have a special place for ribbon in my heart. A slight obsession would best describe it. I just cannot pass up a spool of ribbon. Each spool of ribbon has it's own personality, but once you tie it into a beautiful bow it takes on another dimension. I thought I would come up with a new fun way to tie a beautiful bow, and share how to create it in a step by step tutorial. Also here is a card I created using all fantabulous g.c.d products and my new bow.

This months g.c.d. facebook challenge was to use bows, ties, and bow ties. Bows are one of my favorites, which might explain my enormous ribbon collection!

There is nothing like giving someone you love a handmade gift. Here are two examples. Father's Day is right around the corner and I thought I would stuff this little pillow box full of fabulous gift cards for my hubby to let him know I appreciate him being a wonder father to our daughter. I decorated it to the tee with amazing g.c.d. products complete with a masculine bow.

My other handmade gift is a personalized portfolio that I plan on giving to my sweet daughter. She can store drawings and journal entries it, and save it for a special keepsake. It's easy and fun creating and altering with all of the fabulous products g.c.d. has to offer. You can see all of their awesome collections HERE.

Thanks for all your sweet comments!
